September 23rd,


The musicians I knew..
1930 - Ray Charles, American musician (d. 2004)
1943 - Julio Iglesias, Spanish singer
1947 - Neal Smith, American musician (Alice Cooper)
1949 - Bruce Springsteen, American singer and songwriter
1972 - Jermaine Dupri, American music producer and rapper

And ofcourse, 63 BC - Augustus Caesar, Roman Emperor (d. 14)

Something totally different, and weird.. Celebrate Bisexuality Day was first recognized in 1999 and is observed mainly in the U.S., Canada, Europe, and Australia.
Piss off Bisexuals.. Its my freakin B-Day!
